Hope
for Recovery: Understanding Posttraumatic Stress Disorder
In
clear and sympathetic language, Hope for Recovery seeks
to dispel the myths about PTSD that keep many people from
recognizing the problem and obtaining help. As a companion
to the booklet, the documentary-style video portrays the
personal stories of PTSD patients, interwoven with professional
guidance offered by experts from the Alliance member organizations.
The
booklet and the video address risk factors for PTSD and
its symptoms and provides information on treatment options
and how family and friends of someone with PTSD can provide
support and help in the recovery process. Both the booklet
and video are available free of charge.
